The Bachelor Season 26, Episode 2: Heroes and Villains

THE BACHELOR - "2602" - Clayton moves forward in his journey to find love with the 22 incredible women who remain. After moving into the Bachelor Mansion for the first time since the pandemic began, these eligible singles are ready to kick off a week of dates! On the season's first group date, celebrity guest Hilary Duff enlists the help of the ladies to throw a dream Beverly Hills birthday party, but when one woman is more interested in spending time with Clayton than the kids, the others have strong feelings to share. Later, one lucky lady flies high with Clayton on the first one-on-one date featuring a surprise musical performance by Amanda Jordan; and Ziwe stops by the second group date to help Clayton spot potential red flags among his bachelorettes. After the dates have all ended, a major storm brews heading into the cocktail party when a shocking secret about a woman who already has a rose is revealed. Will Clayton be forced to do something that no other Bachelor has ever done before? Find out on "The Bachelor," airing MONDAY, JAN. 10 (8:00-10:01 p.m. EST), on ABC.

The Bachelor Season 26, Episode 2: Villains

#1: Cassidy

First of all, she’s rude. Second of all, she got the group date rose and I just about broke my TV in half when I saw that happen right before my very own two eyes. Third of all, you can just tell that she doesn’t care about anyone or anything but herself–not even Clayton. She’s not willing to try things that her potential partner loves and enjoys. Although she got the group date rose this week, she surely won’t be around much longer, I’ll tell you that.

Other than all of that, I can’t stand her. Bye, just, bye.

#2: Shanae

First of all, she’s guilty by association, given that she’s involved in Cassidy’s drama, as well as her own (they should be related or go be a couple by themselves so the world is spared from either of them–ugh). Second of all, she refers to herself in the third person, and I can’t stand when anyone does it, let alone someone like her. Third of all, she thinks that she’s hot s***; well, (breaking) news, you ain’t.

Just bye. Ugh, that is all.
